LunchTimeWaster: Indie Water Torture

Flood The Chamber is a brutal platformer that takes place entirely on a single screen. You start at the very bottom left corner and must work your way up to the top left. And all the while the water is rising...

It was created for Game Jolt's Rogue Contest, hence the severe difficulty. However, while it's brutal it's not utterly merciless. If you're killed by a trap, you'll respawn at the nearest checkpoint. Which is nice.

But the water continues to rise no matter how many times you respawn and once it catches up to you, you'll drown and it's game over.

@Joseph, the black screen bug is with Game Maker itself, here is the solution as posted by notable GM user JW:
Everyone who has problems with running this game (including the NVidia display issue) can try this solution :

You have to have Windows Media Player associated with the MP3 format. Having another media player like Media Player Classic associated with MP3s will not solve this problem.

When I was younger, Resident Evil 4 looked so cool. I remember being so excited to play it. Then I found out that it was only going to be released on the Nintendo Gamecube, which I didn’t own.
My dreams were shattered because I was a dumb kid and didn’t realise that one day it would come to more consoles. Since that sad moment in my life, RE4 has been released on nearly every platform. And I can’t stop buying it every time a new port is released.
